Giving Tuesday is today 💙

This year, we’re coming together with one shared goal: to raise $5,000 for FUSION’s Scholarship Program and support clay + glass artists at every stage of their careers.

Every contribution—big or small—helps build opportunities for emerging makers, mid-career artists, and those pushing the boundaries of our craft. When our community gives, artists thrive. ✨

The impact is real: community generosity is directly fueling the growth of recent scholarship recipient Chloe Begg’s @cb.ceramics practice.

Donating is easy:
• Receive an automatic tax receipt for eligible donations
• Give in honour of a friend or family member—a meaningful gift that supports a whole community
• Know that 100% of your donation goes directly to clay and glass artists

Giving Tuesday is December 2—will you help us reach $5,000 and fuel the next wave of ceramic and glass innovation?
